Not Impressed on my review.

I bought this product under the impression I would get a high quality KVM switch box. Frankly I don't see much difference between this product and the much cheaper products except the price and that surprisingly, the cheaper products have more features such as a hotkey and option to hook up sound. Other than that I continue to have the same issues I had with much cheaper KVM switches which led me to buy this product in the first place.Switching from one device to another still takes time for…

Pros
  • One of the few kvms that flat out works. Highly recommend it.
Cons
  • Expensive compared to other KVM switches on the market

It's excellent. I got this because my previous KVM would .

This is KVM #12 or #13. It's excellent. I got this because my previous KVM would not work with newer wireless mice. This one has had no issues at all.I have an odd setup, one primary system with a 4k monitor and then 3 other systems which have their own 1080p monitor; and I use a USB switch to flip between the systems. This KVM has worked exactly how I had hoped it would even under non standard circumstances.Very happy with the purchase.

Pros
  • The ConnectPRO UR-14+KIT is designed to connect up to 4 USB devices, making it an ideal choice for users who want to control multiple devices from a single console
Cons
  • Not compatible with wireless keyboards and mice

Initially, support was good. I had a few issues at first, but they were fixed. Then my kvm stopped displaying to monitors correctly-when I would switch back to a machine, I would get a black screen even though the cpu saw the monitor. The only way to fix was to unplug the monitor link from that cpu on the kvm and plug it back in. I emailed support and they said they would RMA my kvm. That was several weeks ago and they have not responded to any of my followup emails. Stay away from this…

Pros
  • This KVM switch is compatible with a wide range of USB-enabled devices, including PCs, laptops, and servers, making it a versatile choice for both home and office use
Cons
  • Takes too long to switch between devices

Originally I was okay with this unit and its quirks, but with time they've just gotten worse. For as expensive an item as this is, I expected more quality than I got.It completely stops sending USB traffic to my Linux box when it's rebooted, and the hotkey feature has stopped working altogether.I was hoping for more because I liked the design. It actually emulates the presence of a keyboard and mouse on the servers that are not selected. Other, cheaper units emulate plugging and unplugging of…

Pros
  • No problems. It works as it should.
Cons
  • Not compatible with all operating systems
